lyrics

Part 1 - Spankit (inst)
Part 2 - An Inconclusive Contemplation of Navel Fluff
Part 3 - A Tip of The Hat (To Francis Dunnery)
Part 4 - 'You Can't run Away From Yourself'

When the world is weighing on your shoulders
You got nowhere to turn
The only thing you're getting is older
You think there's nothing more to learn
Just take a look into the distance
There's a horizon you'll never reach
Throughout your whole existence
You're just a grain of sand on a shifting beach

Oh you can try to run
You've only just begun
You can't run away, you can't run away from yourself
Oh the more you turn away
You'll face yourself some day
Oh you can't run away, you cant run away from yourself

Ah, somewhere in that heat-haze distance
An answers waiting you can feel it
But you mistrust your instincts
'Cos in your heart you know you dreamed it
And fate can be such a cruel mistress
There's always time for you to find
Everything you ran towards in your distress
Was everything you left behind

Oh your love is lying dusty on a shelf
Like some book that's been seldom read
You feel nothing like anybody else
Sometimes you think you're better off dead
But I know there's a spark inside your heart
That only you can feel
Don't let it all just drift apart
Let it out and make it real
